Perry Hotel to Lay Off 138 Workers as It Undergoes Renovations; STK to Lay Off 80

Earlier this month, news broke that the Perry Hotel will undergo its third name change in a little more than a year. The resort was formerly known as the Gansevoort but will soon close for a nearly a yearlong, $100 million renovation to reopen as the eco-friendly 1 Hotel.

On February 12, STK Miami Service LLC also filed a WARN notice with the state that it was slated to lay off 80 workers. Two other smaller WARN notices were also filed by companies connected to the hotel. Those notices affect four employees in total. Update: Just to be clear STK is not closing. The workers being laid off provide room service and other related services to the hotel.
